Dang. I’m doing an event this morning and just saw Malik Jackson and Carlos Hyde released. No surprise on both. #Jaguars @ESPN690Jax @ActionSportsJax @ActionNewsJax

Some #Jaguars folks told me months ago they will be able to clear $40 million easily. Bingo. Done. What cap problems?

We told you this week the hardest #Jaguars cut would be Gipson. And it was. Good player, too expensive right now. @ActionSportsJax @ESPN690Jax #ASJax
